DEPARTMENTAL REPORTS.
The Secretary of WGr's Talk-The
department of Justice.


WASHINGTON, December G.-The an
nual report of the Secretary Of War
transmitted to Congress to-day shows
that the expenditures made by tine
department during the last fiscal year
amounted to S4l, 1856, l6j. The estimates
for the next fiscal year aggregate So3,-
338, 10 against an appropriation Tor the
current wear Of S3l, 900, 3O2. The III
crease is caused by the incorporation OF
an estimate of $22. 339, l5I for public
works, including river and harbor i'm
provements, the expenditures on this
account for the current year amounting
10 only 81, 30S, 400. There is also an in
crease of about 81 800, 900 in the est
mate for the military establishment OF
the army and the military academy.
The report saws that the buildings,
Notifications, public works, and grounds
in the division of the Atlantic are every
where in need of repair or reconstruc-
ton. On the entire Atlantic and Gulf
coast line Of $50 miles and the north
ern frontier OF 2, $50 miles the sole arma-
ment is l42 riAed guns, OF which ll6a
obsolete and of very low power. Even
the few serviceabe rihed guns that are
mounted are OF but little value. Some
of them are mounted on old carriage S,
and all are without adequate protection.
Touching Geronimo and his fellow-cap-
tives now confined at Fort Pickens and
Mount Vernon Barracks, the report
says that they are contented to perform
their work with alacrity, and thus Tar
their conduct has been excellent. At
tins time it is difficult matter to find
for them permanent home. For many
reasons il is impossible TO return them to
Arizona under the existing laws. They
cannot be taken to the Indian Territory,
and in the northern reservations the eli
mate is too cold for them. Pending final
decision they can remain where they are
in comfort and safety.
A brief history is included in the re-
port of the difficulty that arose in Au-
gust last in Colorado between the State
authorities aud Colorow's band of Utes,
and il is said that some effort should GER
tainly be made for the restitution other
property to the Indians.
The Secretary strongly approves OF the
recommendation contained in General
Sherldan's report touching the extension
of all possible aid by the General Co
yernment TO the National Guard OF
the different States, and suggesting
system OF national encampments for the
State militia at the entire expense OF the
national Government. OF the State

the following unanimously:
Whereas il is generally considered

and whereas the interstate commercebill

Resolrcd, That committee OF eight

personally urge on the members OF the
Legislature for Albemarle, tluvanna,

for passing a bill supplementary to the
Interstate commerce act and containing
penalties sufficient TO enforce obedience
from railroads 10 the law.
After dinner the members discussed

opening OF a new sllo, which to all ap-
pearGnces was quite satisfactory.

A Nishr Ixnrrimenf.

DIR. Gross, of Geneva, las, in the in
terest OF medical science, carried out
series OF experiments upon himself to
ascertain how death is produced by hang
ing His experiments seem to establish
that death may result quite apart from
suiiocation, which arises from compress
sion of the traches. Ordinarily at execu-
tons IN England the hsngman, since the
time OF Calcraft, has allowed the culprit
a great fall of rope, sometimes seven or
eight feet, and the neck is usually
broken. so that life is extinct IN q
moment. Ia two cases OF hanging Dr.
Gross observed that the cord left the
larynx free, and breathing proceeded,
yet the sufferings of the condemned
men were soon over. Applying tests to
his own meek, without placing pressure
on the larynx, the doctor found that IN
two minutes he lost consciousness
through Ger, bral congestion and con-
slriction of the great blood-vessels OF
the neck. A compress was contriyed
which enabled the bold investigator to
repeat the experiments at will, and there
was invariably the same blotting out of
consciousness in two minutes The SEN
satiOn vas neither agreeable nor dis
agreeable, his only feeling being one OF
warmth and burnin in the head, and
